So, 50 years ago today, a communist loser who’d lived in the USSR for a while until it didn’t work for him, then been rejected for residence in Cuba for whatever reason, shoots a U.S. President presumably, if he had any motives at all other than being bug shit crazy, because he didn’t approve of said president’s less than cordial relationship with communist mass murderer Fidel Castro.

And the Old Grey Meth Hooker, the New York Times‘ explanation for this?

Betwixt organized crime being angry with little dirty Johnny about shutting down their casinos (he evidently had forgotten where Daddy Joe got his money) to the rumored end of the Federal Reserve, to porking Marilyn Monroe, to Johnson looking for more Army orders for Bell Helicopter (rumored that a shit-load of the stock was held by Lady Bird) to Johnson just wanting to be president at any cost, hell’s bells – who didn’t have it in for Kennedy?

Enter a little weasel who was easily manipulated and given a job at the book depository to take a couple shot (whilst a REAL sniper did so from the opposite direction) with a suppressed .264 Win Mag (the same bullet diameter as the 6.5 Italian Carcano, a weapon debated often as to which end of the rifle was the most dangerous). $19.99 from Klein’s Sporting goods in NYC – $23.00 with a “scope”, I believe. WWII MilSurp ammo. I asked my father for one, since it was so cheap. He said “hell no – that thing is a piece of shit”

“Magic” bullets, fleeing through a theater (what a cheesy story), a secretary named Lincoln, and a bought and paid for “Warren Commission” to do the investigating.

Great Caeser and Nero riding pogo sticks – just as the bastards do now, that delivered the message, loud and clear that “We’re lying to you, you can’t prove it, so na-na-nana-nah”.

Yeah, and you had the press covering up all his escapades while he was in office ( a tradition started probably not long after the first occupant of the oval office was ushered in .. albeit with not as much to cover up…lets just say it started after Lincoln and let it go at that. anyhow…) . Kennedy was far from perfect … but had he been running today….hell, he would be considered to be very much closer to conservative circles than to the Confederacy of Dunces … err wait … that’s Congress … He would find the Democratic Party and all its fellow travelers to be as evil as anything he saw staring him in the face from the other side of the iron curtain.

That being said, he , as far as his first term could be judged, was at best a marginal president. But compared to the narcissist in chief we have now …. there would have been no hesitation as to whom I would have chosen.

And isn’t it ironic….Nixon, whose very name still causes Dems to froth at the mouth, was more responsible for many of the programs Dems are in love with than Kennedy ever was. Yet because JFK had a D after his name…

Do you know who was really gunning for President Kennedy on that fateful day in Dallas in 1963?

The first tea partiers.

That’s the claim of University of Texas journalism Professor Bill Minutaglio in a scathing essay printed in the “National” section of the Washington Post online on the eve of the 50th anniversary of JFK’s assassination titled, “Tea party has roots in the Dallas of 1963.”

According to Minutaglio, the same “hysterical fringe” alive today in anti-Obamacare protests was “waiting for Kennedy the day he died.”

Furthermore, Minutaglio claims, it’s another right winger from “nut country” – i.e. Texas – still leading the charge in the form of Republican Sen. Ted Cruz.

Since everyone likes to float more or less plausible theories to take the blame off the Commie hitman, let me celebrate the fiftieth anniversary with a brand new!!! theory, just as implausible as any other. Who done it? ….
Jackie was the driving force behind the assassination! She certainly had lots of motives, starting with anger and resentment of the husband who ignored her in favor of a series of far more glamorous wimmin. Second, by the summer of 1963 everyone knew Jack was in political trouble, and was very likely to be defeated in 1964, if he was even re-nominated. And Jackie would go back to being the spurned wife of a millionaire has-been whoremaster. There’s only one way. Transform him into a dead martyr, permitting his widow to create the myth of Camelot. Jackie gets to bask in the martyr’s reflected glory for a few years, and then remarry to a super-rich billionaire. How did she do it? Ssssshhh! That’s still cloaked in the shadows. Power and money, money and power. And a touch of glamour and influence. Everyone’s dead … except those who don’t want to be.

Or maybe it was just the Easter Bunny. After all he tried to attack Jimmie Carter.

It was far left elements of the Democrat party. They thought JFK was far too conservative, and knew that Johnson was a thoroughly corrupt socialist, yes I know that’s redundant, who would advance the agenda.

Ace has a great takedown of the revisionism, comparing modern leftists to the tribes of “pre-logical” primitives described by Jung in Modern Man in Search of a Soul. The takeaway is that the leftwing loons think the conservatives influenced a known commie rat just by the sheer power of their hate, the same way Sarah Palin ju-jued Jared Loughner with her bullseye map that he never saw. Enchanted Crocodiles, Mighty Sorcerers, and Lee Harvey Oswald
